Winifred Lamb (1894 –1963) was born in London and educated at Newnham College, Cambridge. Lamb first came to the BSA in 1920, and she was readmitted eight times. Lamb played a prominent role in excavations at Mycenae and Sparta before launching her own site at Thermi. Work on Lesbos, Chios, and then in Turkey followed; she was a founding member of the British Institute at Ankara. Lamb had a long association with the Fitzwilliam Museum, becoming Honoary Keeper of the Greek and Roman Antiquities. Outside of archaeology, Lamb worked in British intelligence during the first world war and in the BBC's European Intelligence Unit during the second. |
